Provencal Village House In Saignon, Provençe, South Of France

This was our first time in the south of France and it did not disappoint. We stopped in Saignon for 3 nights to visit our daughter who is studying in LaCoste. Saignon is a beautiful, quaint village about 12 miles from Lacoste and several other beautiful small villages. In Saignon we enjoyed Christine’s croissants on a daily basis. So good. Our host Rachael was excellent. She was in constant contact with us during our planning stages and her friend Joanna was equally excellent. Joanna met us at the house, gave us a brief but thorough tour of the village and was available to answers all questions we had. If you are looking for a quiet get-a-way in the south of France I highly recommend this place.

We stayed in the last week of September. The weather was wonderful and the valley provided wonderful hikes, markets and scenery. Our host and her agent were very helpful in orienting us to the property and area. We are an older couple and this property was ideal. We hope to one day return.

For 20 years my husband and I have been renting homes in the Luberon, each distinctive and comfortable. From the moment we arrived at Chez Bellevue, we knew that we absolutely found the most perfect haven to relax and experience the beauty & serenity of Saignon and environs. If you are looking for a step back in time while having all modern conveniences at your disposal, look no further than Rachael and Morris’s home. As you see from the photos, this stone house is situated such that you with marvel at gorgeous, colorful sunsets and a stunning view of the hills & valley below Saignon. The house is simply beautiful---the care and detail in furnishings, art, books, linens…all will have you feel as though you’re in another time that was simpler, comforting, and elegant. The beds are very comfortable; showers flow with hot water; kitchen is unmatched with what is there for you to make & enjoy meals; you want for nothing at this house! Most important---Rachael has thought of everything to make your stay a real escape without worry. From extra blankets to baskets & hats for market days, everything is there for you. Joanna will settle you in and she’s available any time to assist. We were met with a lovely bottle of wine, local preserves & herbs, and great info on where to hike & shop. And, Saignon is AMAZING! There’s so much to see in & around this village, I could go on and on! Thank you, Rachael! We cannot wait to return to Chez Bellevue!

From the beginning, this could not have been a better rental experience. The house was very spacious, comfortable, attractive— both modern and old Provençal. The owner was warm, welcoming, very communicative, and was generous with supplies and excellent suggestions. The caretaker, Joanna, and her husband, were wonderfully helpful and enjoyable. The location was perfect, not only magical in its beauty, but situated near other lovely villages like Lourmarin and Bonnieux. There are an abundance of wonderful restaurants in and not too far from Saignon. Having rented many French houses over the past 20+ years, this one stands out as one of the best in every regard, particularly because the owner and caretaker were so wonderful. We intend to return to “Chez Bellevue” for future stays.

Home is stunning in the beautiful village of Saignon. Attention to detail is beyond reproach, nothing left to want. The location was superb. We were able to visit in our 10 days every other small village farmers market in Provence. We even tried to rate the other villages compared to Saignon, but nothing compared. Views from the home we spectacular. It is sometimes hard to find a slice of heaven in our world today. This is one we are happy we did not miss. Thank you Rachael and Joanna.

The house is beautifull renovated but maintaining the Provençal essence with many antiques furnitures The views are great and the location perfect The beds are confortables and there are plenty of towels in the bathroom You will find anything you need to cook or get inspired in where to go in Provence And Johanna welcome is perfect , detailed information about the house and a positive energy. Thank you for hosting us.

Our stay in Saignon was absolutely wonderful. Everything about the house and the village was fantastic. The host was so considerate, greeting us at the door and even showing us around town. The accommodations were spectacular, with beautiful views and very roomy, immaculate and comfortable for our family of 5. We will definitely be coming back - the house and Saignon were the highlight of our trip!

Chez Bellevue is truly a special place. The views from the house overlooking fields of lavender are amazing. The village of Saignon is really picturesque. The small city of Apt is only a couple of minutes away. Great place to stay.

Welcoming hosts. Property in good shape, nothing missing for a relaxed stay off the tourist path.

The four of us agreed this house exceeded our expectations. Every time we returned from visiting another village we'd say how we were so glad to be staying at Chez Bellevue in Saignon. The house is very comfortable with a gorgeous view out back. Sunsets were always enjoyed with dinner, making it a good reason to cook at home, notwithstanding the fabulous produce and all that can be found at the farmer's markets. The kitchen was well-equipped and easy to work in. The village was surprisingly interesting. We spent hours exploring, and getting exercise following the winding streets all around. The view on the Rocher is not to be missed! Joanna took good care of us, answering our questions and offering interesting bits about the village and culture we were immersed in. We wished we had planned our stay for more time as there's so much to see and do within a reasonable distance. We didn't want to leave after only one week!
